of ageing-associated diseases like e.g. neurodegeneration or diabetes. She or he has a long-standing expertise in the elucidation of biological mechanisms of ageing using model organisms and/or human cohorts to apply expertise in functional genetics or pharmacological/nutritional
interventions. Alternatively, the successful candidate is a proven expert in applying exercise to prevent or mechanistic aids to ameliorate symptoms of functional decline. The research will provide unprecedented approaches to promote healthy ageing by preventing
or reverting physiological, yet widely undefined hallmarks of higher age. Specific expertise may include (i) biological mechanisms of ageing, using model organisms like yeast, fruit flies, roundworms and/or mice, (ii) genetics of ageing and age-associated
diseases, including neurodegeneration and metabolic disorders, (iii) mechanism-based prevention of physiological decline by pharmacological, nutritional or exercise interventions, as well as tissues engineering and replacement, and (iv) the quantification,
maintenance and restoration of movement capacity applying high-end engineering and robotics approaches.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
